donnerstag

Born in the United States to a heavily European-influenced family in the 1970s and raised only miles from NYC, donnerstag was perfectly positioned to see electronic music unfold and this has absolutely influenced his headline DJ sets and his chart-topping productions today.

In the past 4 years alone donnerstag had over 25 Beatport Top 10 Releases on the Melodic Techno and Techno charts and over 40 Beatport Top 100 Releases as well as being featured for “Best New Melodic Techno” for 2 months in a row by the staff at Beatport and his work has been supported globally since day one by Stephan Bodzin, Maceo Plex, Ignacio Arfeli (Suara, Odd, We Are The Brave, Octopus), MT93 (Suara, Odd, Terminal M, Octopus), WhoMadeWho, La Santa (Redolent, Stereo Productions), Sparrow & Barbossa (Mo Black, Stereo Productions), Nico Morano (Atmosphere, Kattermukke), GIZA DJs (Diynamic), Paco Osuna, Richie Hawtin, Aaryon (Suara / Yoshitoshi), Darin Epsilon (Selador / Einmusik), Stylo (Timeless Moment), Marco Carola, RE_US, Luigi Madonna, Stacey Pullen, Mitch Alexander (microCastle), John 00 Fleming, Roger Shah, Univak head honcho Integral Bread and Abstraal (Family Piknik).

In September of 2021, donnerstag hit #1 on the Beatport Melodic Techno charts with his smash release “The Day the Angels Cried” on Belgian boutique label Melodia Records which has made the entire industry stand up and take notice and simultaneously hit #1 with his hit single “Here With You” on Dizharmonia´s label Androgyne Audio.

Internationally headlining since 2015, donnerstag earned his co-headliner stripes in 2021 by sharing tour time with acts like Space Motion, Tebra, Omar Labastida, as well as Darin Epsilon.

The sky is the limit for this ever-evolving, hard-working musical maestro as he persistently skips over the borders of his home country he continues to build out his brand on an international scale through both his standout creations and the infectious live performances and sound bites coming from his own label (Kitu Records, GER).
